Europe’s Most Active

Super Angel Fund

Who We Are

We’re the most active Super Angel Fund in Europe, investing in 75+ startups each year. We back the next generation of category-defining companies originating from Europe.

We back teams even before incorporation and are happy to co-invest with other investors in Angel, Pre-seed, or Seed rounds. Our typical check size is €125k.

Once we’ve invested, we coach teams for at least one year, around 60% go on to raise a Series A round.

Each year, we back 50 AI startups, 20 crypto and fintech startups, and 10 climate and deep tech startups. Occasionally, we’re so smitten by a team that we venture outside these areas.

Our partners have built startups across all these sectors, and our bench is deep when it comes to helping founders raise both equity and debt. To date, we’ve supported well over 100 follow-on rounds.

Three Pillars

We’re no-nonsense.

Our process is simple: you meet a partner, and they either commit or they don’t. There’s no pitching to associates or investment committees.

We back founders.

It’s about more than money. We coach founders to reach product–market fit and raise their Series A. Every partner here has built a startup before. We know how it works.

Collaborative.

We know the European investment landscape inside and out. We’ve co-invested and collaborated with over 1,000 investors. We know the vast majority of VC firms personally. Once we’re invested, we’re happy to help founders access that network.

Meet Angel Invest

We have over ten partners who back founders with initial checks. Some are full-time, others part-time. Each writes a €125,000 check and mentors the teams.

Our VC Map


One of the things all founders have to do is raise more funding. We have tracked the European VC landscape since 2006 (don’t ask) and have what is probably the best free database of every European VC fund out there. Anybody can use it. We actively work with founders whom we back to navigate it.
